Forcing a page to refresh in proxy server cache

I am accessing an externally hosted web server that uses jsps and dowbloads .jar files to the browser. We have a round robin auto-proxy URL that routes the browser user via one of a number of physical proxy servers. Some recent issues with out of date versions of applets loading are thought to be caused by the cacheing at the proxy servers. Can I force the pages to load from the remote web server (a) at run-time, within the browser session, and (b) via tags in the page source?
Thanks.

I need a solution to the same problem too, desperately. The proxy caching of some ISP are disturbing my applet from running properly.

  • How can I force an ISP to refresh a file in proxy server cache?

    Hi all,
    In my applet I am getting a remote file. But with some ISP's I have the problem that when I try to get that file again I get the older version which they had in their proxy servers cache.
    Is it possible for me to enforce refresh on this ISP's proxy server with some code in the applet or in the web page or in any other way?
    If yes, how?
    I would appreciate your answers very much, because I am in an urgent and desperate situation.
    Thanks and bye.

    If you are using URLConnection
    myURLConnection.setRequestProperty("pragma:","no-cache"Actually, the 'pragma' header is an HTP 1.0 (old) concept. The one for HTTP 1.1 is 'Cache-Control'. That said, you should always use both to support old/new browsers.
    You could also use the following headers :
    Expires, must-revalidate, proxy-revalidate etc...
    You could also implement a getLastModified() method in your servlet, which returns the time (as a long) at which the content was last changed. The server could then intercept 'If-Modified-Since' requests.
    Keep in mind that, because of several notorious browser bugs ( http://www.web-caching.com/browserbugs.html ), it can be difficult to effectively turn off caching across the board.

  • FB4 Implicit Paging: Any way to force current page  to refresh its values from server?

    I have a datagrid that I am using the new Flash Builder 4 implicit paging feature on.  Currently if a user clicks a grid item and modifies its values in a popup i want to force the current page of the datagrid to retrieve those values from my server again.
    Here is the scenario I want to reslove:
    Say I have a 1000 records to be shown in the grid but I have utilized implicit paging and only show 100 records at a time.  Say the user has scrolled down and they are now seeing the page containing records 300-399.  If the user changes a value concerning one of the records in 300-399 I want that "page" to be refreshed from the server side data. 
    Now i have tested updating the data directly in the grid but have run into an issue.  Say I change a value displayed in the grid on the client side, now if I get data from the server again it will only reflect what i changed earlier and not what is actually coming from the server.

    Well i figured out how to refresh the grid with:
    service.getDataManager(service.DATA_MANAGER_FUNCTION).refresh();
    Anyone know how to just refresh only one page out of a all the implicit pages?

  • Help!  Old Version of Page STUCK in Safari Proxy Server

    I have a website that I run. For some reason no matter what I do, there are old versions of my website stuck in the Safari Proxy Server. A year and a half ago my online cart was down, so I put up a message on the website. I STILL get calls almost every day from people who think my online cart is down. I am at my wit's end! How do I tell the proxy server that there is an updated version of my website!?! I have tried embedding code, doing major design changes, but nothing has helped. Anyone?!
    (the website is www.bubbleandbee.com)

    Greetings,
    For some reason no matter what I do, there are old versions of my website stuck in the Safari Proxy Server.
    That's a rather vague statement. It would be more helpful if you actually said what you have done so far to correct this problem.
    But to my way of thinking, you need to clear the cache of your proxy server, which should be easy to do and it should work.

  • Add timestamp to all links (circumvent proxy server cacheing)

    Hello,
    we found some proxy servers cache the jsps, so we've been putting a timestamp on the links so when the user clicks on them it looks like a different request to the proxy server. does anyone know of a good way to do this for all links in a webapp? i tried using filters, but didnt come up with a good way to rewrite the links. encodeURL() only appends the session id, which is the same for a person's session and only if cookies aren't available. i guess we need a way to append the timestamp, requestID or something unique to each request. anyone know of a good or best way to do that? my best candidate now is a jsptag that takes in the url and parameters normally in the href but inserts a timestamp. any better way?

    we don't control all the proxies. so we need a
    solution that is bigger then any of the customer's
    proxy settings.Sorry, that's not what I meant, what I meant was sending HTML headers that tell proxies not to cache the page. Read the link on my previous post to see.

  • I am having trouble with the updates to firefox. Each time I start it I get a page that says proxy server refusing connections and have to reinstall the old version just to use the internet. That also removes the personas from my browser.

    I currently have version 3.0.10 and have gotten two prompts to upgrade my version of firefox and each time I do install the new version and then try to start up Firefox, I get a page instead that says proxy server is refusing connections and the only way to browse is to re-install the old version. I also have to re-install the old version at least 3 times before I can use Personas.

    In Firefox 3.6.4 and later the default connection settings have been changed to "Use the system proxy settings".<br />

  • Force Webcenter Spaces Page to Refresh on focus

    Hi all,
    We are on WebCenter Spaces PS5. We have a page inside spaces which we want to refresh on focus. We have a document upload portlet on a page which is used to upload a document and then display the list of documents in a result table on that page.
    PROBLEM: We have to manual refresh the page for the newly uploaded document to be displayed on the resultable on the page.
    QUESTION: How can we force the page to refresh on focus?
    Remember this is a webcenter spaces page.
    Thank you....

    You can invoke serverlistener from onFocus client event,
    Pass the control to the backend and use the following code to refresh.
    HttpServletRequest request=(HttpServletRequest)FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getRequest();
    FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().redirect( request.getRequestURL());

  • How can I optimize my browser? I'm having serious issues in Hotmail, forcing me to constantly refresh the page, then I lose all my text when I do!

    I'm using Firefox 3.6.8 [& Vista os], and can't find any relevant info in Firefox 'Help' re: optimizing browser.
    I wrote Hotmail about my problem below, and they say I need to optimize my browser. They don't give instructions for how to do this in Firefox.... when I search in your 'help' contents, nothing close comes up.
    I also have the concern whether someone else is accessing my account, since the error mssg says something to the effect "when you access your acct from more than one computer"....
    Please help - Thank you!
    This is VERY frustrating, to say the least! I have major deadlines, and Hotmail is so bad I can't get my work done!!
    Ever since the 'upgrade', I am forced to almost constantly refresh my browser, and then when I do, my email and all my text goes away! Sometimes I am prompted to refresh when I have just logged in.... It asks me to refresh my browser sometimes once a minute.... sometimes more often!
    When I hit refresh, it actually causes the current page to disappear, and it comes back as a blank email with all my text gone! And hitting the 'back' button does not bring me back to the page I lost.
    Most of the time I can't even save my work as a draft, because it asks me to refresh [again], and then the email is gone and there's no draft to be found.
    This is *very* time consuming!! I've had to figure out how to work around this problem, but my 'fix' is also very tedious and time consuming....
    I'm constantly copying my text so I have a current copy of my email, then when I lose the draft, I paste it back in... I often go in circles with this, and eventually I'll have my current draft saved.
    Also, sometimes when it prompts me to refresh, just hitting the 'save draft' button a few times will suffice. So at least I won't lose my page, because, sometimes hitting 'save draft' actually works.... Eventually, tho, it'll force me to refresh before I can move on to sending the email.
    Please help!! I've been using Hotmail since before MS bought it, and this problem is SO bad I'm considering jumping ship so I can get my work done!!
    I don't generally like upgrades, as it usually means there will be problems, and the upgrade was released before being fully tested!.... I don't like being a guinea pig, especially when I have deadlines!
    Please help - Thank you!

    You can try to copy the text to the clipboard (Ctrl + A and Ctrl +C) if you need to refresh.

  • Safari cannot open the page ~ The error was: "There was a problem communicating with the web proxy server (HTTP)

    Help!  I was cruzing along just fine and went out tonight only to receive the message above:
    Cannot open Page
    Safari cannot open the page
    The error was: "There was a problem communicating with the web proxy server (HTTP)."
    I have had all the Apple iPhone phone.  Have never encountered anything like this. 
    All systems are GO as soon as I log on to wifi. 
    Can anyone help, please. 

    I am also fixed.  I also loaded Onavo, but that was the other day ... this is what I did with the help of online chat with AT&T ...
    I went to:
    Settings
    Wifi
    I selected the network I was working on by hitting the blue arrow located on right side
    At the detail page of that network I scolled down to the bottom to find HTTP Proxy boxes
    I was on Off and changed it to Auto and it worked! 
    I was soo jazzed!!
    Instructions said if it was already on AUTO, to change it to Manual and make your Port = 80 but I didn't have to do that!
    YIPPIE!!  I'm a new man!!
    Go to settings -----> WI-FI  -----> select the network you're using  ------> hit the blue arrow located on the right-side of the network name (ie: show details of that network), this takes you to another page.  
    --------> at the bottom of the page you'll see "HTTP Proxy" boxes (located below the "renew lease" button) ---------------> change the proxy to AUTO.   Note: if you're already at AUTO, change it to "Manual" and make your Port = 80.

  • DirectAccess Force Tunneling via proxy server (TMG)

    Hello
    I am looking to enable Force Tunneling for DirectAccess.  All web traffic would then go via TMG proxy.  This is all fine, but in the past this was once configured and stopped IMAP from working?  
    The question is, would forced tunneling only send http/https traffic to the proxy by design and all other traffic directly out? Other traffic does traverse the proxy when internal to the LAN but I am sure DA treats this a little different in terms of what
    protocols are forwarded - Is this correct?
    If this is the case then I am assumming the firewall infrastructure is stopping IMAP?
    Thanks

    Hi There - it is a strong recommendation even in Microsoft deployments not to use Force Tunnelling unless you really have to. Using Force Tunnelling will always revert to IP-HTTPS which is still technically the slowest of the transition technologies. This
    means DirectAccess clients use only IP-HTTPS to obtain IPv6 connectivity to the DirectAccess servers over the IPv4 Internet.  IP-HTTPS has much higher overheads than IPv6, 6to4 or Teredo. Also your proxy server will handle every request and consume
    plenty of bandwidth and you cannot put NRPT exemptions in force tunnelling as all traffic has to come through the tunnel. There is also the small issue of captive portals. There are more things to list but the above should be enough to start an argument on
    why not to do it !!
    You could implement a split tunnel with enforced web proxy (seeing as you have TMG) as per the guide / recommendations by Shannon Fritz below (which works well in reality.

  • After a Network Attack where the Proxy Server was enabled, disabling it still leaves page components missing with "Declaration Dropped" in Error Log. What other setting was changed?

    A fake security program claimed corruption, and when it was
